QOTD: "We in America have learned bitter lessons from two World Wars: It is better to be here ready to protect the peace, than to take blind shelter across the sea, rushing to respond only after freedom is lost. We've learned that isolationism never was and never will be an acceptable response to tyrannical governments with an expansionist intent." --President Ronald Reagan

Back in the day, cartoon ads depicting a bully kicking sand at a skinny kid and taking his girl promoted a Charles Atlas ideal of strength, self reliance and American virtue.
Strangely, there was a child in Hawaii who saw these ads and fashioned his life after the weakling. He grew up to marry a gorilla of a girl, live with her maternal family unit, adore stronger meaner men and advocate liberty for people with anti-social values. He adopted aliases, loved to play the race card when someone called him half white, and hid evil his intentions behind a smile. He found a Party that embraced his choices and values then rewarded him with a kingdom.
America is now in need of its own D Day.
